Thai sweet corn fritters are called ‘Tod Man Khao Pod’ in Thai. They are the BEST corn fritters ever!
In Thailand, these corn fritters are served fresh by the street vendors where they are fried up in huge batches. Few years ago, I had the opportunity to travel to Thailand for holiday and I savoured the most delicious sweetcorn fritters. They were light, airy and crispy!
I know that lot of people advocate adding egg while making fritters however, it is made with rice flour and cornflour as it gives the fritters lighter touch. I learnt how to make these fritters while I was travelling in Thailand.
There is something satisfying about eating these crispy fritters. They are sweet from the sweetcorn, crispy from cornflour and have a hit of Thai spices. They are soo moreish that you will not be able to stop at one.
Super quick and easy to make! The batter takes only minutes to put together, fry spoonful’s in hot oil and you will have the yummiest savoury fritters ever. It is a super easy dish that is terrific as an appetizer, snack, or finger food for a party.
Oh! I just love these fritters! Give me a big bowl of these fritters with a Thai sweet chilli dip and I am in food heaven!
If you like South Asian food, I would highly recommend trying Paneer in Pandan Leaves, Thai Cod in Pandan Leaves, Thai Pandan Leaf Chicken, Thai Corn Rice Parcels, Vietnamese Spring Roll/ Goi Cuon, Singaporean Prawn Laksa and Burmese Khow Suey to name a few dishes.
